Tire Pressure Monitor Operation

This vehicle may have a Tire Pressure Monitor System

(TPMS). The TPMS is designed to warn the driver when

a low tire pressure condition exists. TPMS sensors are

mounted onto each tire and wheel assembly, excluding

the spare tire and wheel assembly. The TPMS sensors

monitor the air pressure in the vehicle’s tires and

transmits the tire pressure readings to a receiver located

in the vehicle.

When a low tire pressure

condition is detected, the

TPMS will illuminate the

low tire pressure warning

symbol located on the

instrument panel cluster.

At the same time a message to check the pressure in a

speciﬁc tire appears on the Driver Information Center

(DIC) display. The low tire pressure warning light and the

DIC warning message come on at each ignition cycle

until the tires are inﬂated to the correct inﬂation pressure.

If your vehicle has DIC buttons, tire pressure levels can

be viewed by the driver. For additional information and

details about the DIC operation and displays see DIC

Operation and Displays (With DIC Buttons) on page 3-53

or DIC Operation and Displays (Without DIC Buttons) on

page 3-59 and DIC Warnings and Messages on

page 3-66.

The low tire pressure warning light may come on in cool

weather when the vehicle is ﬁrst started, and then

turn off as you start to drive. This could be an early

indicator that the air pressure in the tire(s) are getting

low and need to be inﬂated to the proper pressure.

A Tire and Loading Information label, attached to

your vehicle, shows the size of your vehicle’s original

equipment tires and the correct inﬂation pressure for your

vehicle’s tires when they are cold. See Loading the

Vehicle on page 4-32, for an example of the Tire and

Loading Information label and its location on your vehicle.

Also see Inﬂation - Tire Pressure on page 5-73.

Your vehicle’s TPMS can warn you about a low tire

pressure condition but it does not replace normal tire

maintenance. See Tire Inspection and Rotation on

page 5-80 and Tires on page 5-64.

Notice: Liquid tire sealants could damage the Tire

Pressure Monitor System (TPMS) sensors. Sensor

damage caused by using a tire sealant is not covered

by your warranty. Do not use liquid tire sealants.
